Tory narrowed his eyes as his expression turned serious. "What do you know?"
"What we know are almost the same."
Theo pulledup from the couch and gave Tory a long, meaningful look. "You should take your tand think
about why I'd say that."
"Can't you just give it tostraight?"
"Nope." Theo raised a brow. "lI want to see what you can cup with and if it'd be the sas mine."
Tory was speechless.
Surely, something was wrong with this man.
Theo then ledaway. | still had a lot of questions, but | decided to just follow him obediently.
As we descended from the top floor of the cabin, we saw a man and a woman exchanging blows. | had initially
thought it was a lovers' quarrel that got out of hand, but when | took a closer look, | realized that it was Anthony
and his girlfriend.

"You bitch! | feed you and | pay for your shit. But you turned around and crawled into Tory Zimmerson's bed. I'm
going to kill you."
Anthony was yelling and swearing as he beat the woman.
The woman's swollen cheeks were a sign that she had been slapped repeatedly. She was battered and bruised.
The beautiful and charming woman had becdisheveled in a blink of an eye.
She had tried to fight back in the beginning, but she eventually gave up. She just allowed herself to be beaten
and yelled at. It seemed like it was not the first tAnthony had abused her.
Gambling addicts were prone to violence, especially when they were a scumbag like Anthony who would use
violence on those who were weaker than him.
| could not bear to stand by and watch, so | walked up to them and tried to stop Anthony. | hissed in an icy tone.
"If | were you, I'd find an obscure corner and stay there until the ship docks. You almost got my husband killed. |
don't know when it'll happen but | just might change my mind and get you to pay with your life. This woman is
the sole reason you're still alive right now. Otherwise, you'd have already ended up in a shark's stomach. You
can't even keep yourself alive. Are you proud of having to rely on a woman to keep you alive?"
My intervention caught Anthony by surprise. He had already lost his temper. My words pushed him off the edge,
and he swung at me.
"What do you think you're doing?"
Theo grabbed his arm and asked in an icy tone.
Anthony looked up at him, and his face paled immediately from the shock. He quickly apologized to me. "Thank
you for teachinga lesson. Madam. | was wrong. Please forgive me."
He did not honestly think that he was wrong. Scumbags like him only admitted their mistakes when their lives
were threatened.
| looked at the woman and felt a sense of pity for her.
She probably had true feelings for him. After all, a beautiful woman like her did not need a man like Anthony.
I said curtly, "Leave him. A scumbag like him isn't worth it."
| knew that it was probably pointless forto advise her, but | still said it.

That woman looked up atwith a surprised look on her face. She did not think that | would stand up for her,
never mind say something like that to her.
"Thank you." She no longer looked like the alluring woman from before.
"No problem. I'm a woman too. It's only normal that | can't stand to see you being treated like this."
Theo glared at Anthony coldly, then he grabbed my hand and said, "Let's go."
When we were about to turn the corner, | could not help but turn back to look at the woman.
Theo squeezed my hand when he heardsigh. He said gently, "Everyone has a life of their own. You should
help them if you can, but don't take it too seriously if you can't or you'll be very exhausted." | looked up at him.
"You don't think I'm being too much of a busybody?"
Theo laughed. "I never said that."
"But you're thinking it."
"No, I'm being accused of something | didn't do."
| scoffed but said nothing else.
